Self Reflection
I thought I was treating others fairly, doing things just right, But that was the first step, that has led me into this plight. I tend to say one thing, while inside I am meaning another, Only to find out later, I can come off as a real muther. Life is so difficult, just trying to express a simple thought, Too many lessons to learn, by now what have I been taught? Verbal expression is confusing, an actual thorn in my very side, I'm better off sending an email, where my thoughts don't collide. It's tough living life in reverse, always explaining after having spoken, Sometimes it feels like a curse, and it leaves me feeling broken. To those I've hurt in this process, I hope "i'm sorry" will suffice, If not, i'll keep on speaking my mind, and continue to roll the dice.

The old adage, "think before you speak" is a good one to follow, at least you apologize, some never do...good poem.

Speaking your mind is all very fine. Turning your problems over to God really helps.

If you consistently speak your mind and speak from the heart you will do me for a friend.
Your chosen rhyming words have impact and meaning and the structure to me has a balanced rhythm. Good one.

Thanks everyone. Roxanne, everyone has the right to believe or not believe regarding spiritual matters. My interpretation of God may differ from yours but it doesn't lessen my convictions. Rod, to your point, I am finding out in life if you are true to yourself and live with honesty, you become trustworthy and more identifiable to others 👌
